Now Hiring: Project Greenland. “Stampede Drilling Inc. is headed north for Project Greenland, part of a major Arctic drilling campaign, and we’re looking for a tough, experienced crew ready to take on the cold and get the job done right.”
If this makes you think of Sir Ernest Shackleton’s famous ad, I’m with you. That one said, “Men wanted for hazardous journey. Low wages, bitter cold, long hours of complete darkness. Safe return doubtful. Honour and recognition in event of success.”

Good thing the Greenland ice cap is melting. I’ve seen the videos! Of rivers of water flowing under the ice cap … and melting it into the oceans! Soon … the oceans will have risen so high, the drilling boats can sail right to the center of Greenland!
Drill baby Drill!
Get with it, Kenji.
Al Gore just said we are entering a new ice age.
Al, the inconvenient GOOF.
Yeah … just about my speed … I’m always 5-years behind my tipping points.
I’m guessing the gender studies grads need not apply.
Except that there will be no honor and recognition in the event of success.
The Greentards will protest your return, spit on you, and doxx you if successful.
You’d have to be a really naive, woke Greentard to actually spit on a pissed off roughneck with kids and a truck payment. I would pay to see that shit.
“Honour and recognition in event of success.” And who were those men exactly? I only know of Shackleton.
Always thus.
Lord Shackleton, and minions.
At least they all died as equals.

It’s too bad they require actual workers. Otherwise, I’d suggest sending out a bunch of [spit] Progs…
Send them anyway. Maybe some will awaken, or just be polar bear feed. Win Win
I’m afraid I’m not qualified. But if they ever need bitter men for hard cold, keep me in mind.
As my wife said in my younger days, “Hard men are good to find.”
